Abstract: This invention provides a multi-task robotic assistant and a method for autonomous or manual, mobile or non-mobile applications thereof. The robotic assistant comprises a scaffold, which is constructed of vertical poles and horizontal frames surrounding it, a load carrier carried by the scaffold, a manipulator carried on the load carrier, an end effector mounted on the manipulator for carrying out a selected task, sensors attached to the scaffold that return sensing information of the work environment of the robotic assistant, and a PMA (Process Manager Apparatus) that supports execution of a plurality of applications and tasks. The method of operation is done by creating one or more tasks, which are generated, controlled and executed by the PMA.

Abstract: A perception-based alignment system (210) can assist in aligning a loading machine (110) with a material receptacle (150). The perception-based alignment system (210) can be associated with a visual sensor network (220) that can capture an image of the material receptacle (150). A fiducial marker (224) is associated with the material receptacle (150). In an aspect, the perception-based alignment system (210) can record an alignment data record (232) of a loading operation and associate the alignment data record (232) with the fiducial marker (224) and, in another aspect, the perception-based alignment system (210) can retrieve and execute the alignment data record (232) to assist with a subsequent loading operation.

Abstract: A guide system (11) for planning missions of autonomous or semi-autonomous material displacement machines (12) includes an operator interface (36) and at least one computer (30) coupled with the operator interface (36). The at least one computer (30) is structured to receive working elevation information associated with missions executed by machines (12) and indicative of working elevation parameters dependent upon disposition of a material displaced by the machines. The guide system (11) is further structured to receive surrounding terrain information and compare the working elevation parameters to a surrounding elevation parameter. The guide system (11) produces elevation variance alerts based on the comparison, and displays the elevation variance alerts in an operator-perceptible form such as graphically on a display in an operator interface (36).
